    "Grew up in sterling. Although there are some bad apples here and there, it’s a beautiful little town with lots of potential and a great education system! "
  • Rocky Shaw
    "A good mix of small town but close enough to big city and access to interstate. City works to improve things, streets, bridges etc"
  • Klpham71
    "Hickory Hills 3 is a lovely neighborhood with young families, retired families and in between. Very safe neighborhood "
  • Jnoworrys
    "I live here and it is a wonderful community. Several safe,well maintained parks and good school system. Excellent hospital and clinics. We feel safe out at night on our daily walks. State of the art fitness center "
  • Goff059
    "The houses are right on top of each other. So if you have a noisy dog it’s very noticeable. And a lot of people leave their cats to roam free. Good sized back yards. "
  • Trulia User
    "You have to walk or drive everywhere, public transportation is minimal...most industries have left the area, there are a few good jobs but most people commute 2 hours away to Chicago for work and live here due to it being cheaper. The real estate prices are driven by this in most cases. It's a great place for the elderly as there isn't much to do here."
  • Laurynfassler
    "Schools are great! Streets are clean and overall a sweet town. I was born and raised here so other than not having that much to do it’s not a bad town "
  • Mandy A.
    "Sterling has some decent neighborhoods, but also some issues to be aware of. Local government enacts new legislation that may be impactful to homeowners, often"
  • Janell L.
    "we are in walking distance to Jefferson, Challand. Whiteside County Career Center and Sterling High school, close to the Hospital and the Duis Center, "
